Premier Equipment, a multi-store John Deere dealership serving southern Ontario, has come to an agreement to purchase neighboring dealer Green Tractors Inc.
Premier Equipment has been on a considerable growth journey in 2025. The acquisition of Green Tractors Inc. (Green Tractors) will be the fourth and most substantial acquisition that Premier will be undertaking this year. In February, Premier added a Stouffville location (formerly Hutchinson Farm Supply). In April, the Hagersville location was added (formerly W.J. Heaslip Ltd.) and on July 31, 2025, a Belleville location will be added with the acquisition of Deerhaven Lawn and Garden Ltd.
The addition of the nine existing Green Tractors locations will bring Premier’s total number of John Deere Ag and Turf branch locations to 20.
“Premier’s growth initiatives in 2025 are carrying out a goal that has been years in the making,” says Allan Dueck, President of Premier Equipment.
Over the past decade Premier has focused on increasing service capabilities. Modernizing facilities, increasing parts and service capacity along with concentration in key areas like precision agriculture has helped position Premier as a leading dealership with the ability to further grow operations.
“We are very excited for this opportunity and what it means for staff and customers,” says Dueck. “For Green Tractors, it provides the opportunity to leverage specialization in areas like production and precision ag and service amenities that Premier has been building out continuously for years. For Premier it provides the opportunity to diversify and learn from Green Tractors’ strength and expertise in turf care, municipalities, small tractors, light construction, and golf market segments. Overall, it provides the ability to further scale our operations and invest in staff and infrastructure to deepen our offering to customers across a significant area in Ontario.”
